    Its friday and I applied for a loan from my credit union, fingers crossed they let me have the money and tell me on saturday!!!. It will reduce my interest rate from an average of 26% to 10%, so my debt free debt will get shorter. with no overpayments I will be free in 5 years!!! Whoop Whoop. If the Credit Union say no then I think its gonna take me 8years. Have a great weekend everyone, and if you find something good to do in the Cambridge area for free then do share the wealth.

    I think I have been dumped. Again. :(

    I've had a grand total of 2 text messages in the last 2 days, one asked what my plans were for the weekend (he already knows I am going to Shrewsbury to do RFL..providing it's not cancelled...as he said he might come with me at one point, but hasn't said any more about it and suddenly announced yesterday that he has the kids all weekend). I said I was away Saturday/Sunday but had the evening to myself tonight, so he could have easily invited me over, but hasn't done.

    The other, in reply to me saying I was free tonight, was just to say 'sorry I haven't had time to get back to you, chaos here, talk later x'.

    Yes, I think we WILL talk later, and it will involve me telling you to p*ss off.

    Don't get it, he was so lovely, and we were getting on so well. :confused:

    So now spending a very lonely night packing for the weekend and feeling very sorry for myself.

    Thats VERY SUCKY!!!!, I think the message thats says "sorry I haven't had time to get back to you, chaos here, talk later x'. Is the dont ring me as I am having problems with my Ex, or they were there!!

    Make sure you have a blast at the weekend and dont let him get to you. besides its friday!!!!

    He was at work, so it wasn't the ex, and actually, I know work IS chaos, so it's not that particular message that's bothered me, just the fact that it's now 8pm and he still hasn't been in touch, and contact has been tailing off gradually for the last couple of weeks.

    I just wish he would say 'sorry, I'm just not that into you', so it was clear, and I could forget about him.

    ah snags..I think I would give him this weekend..don't contact him at all, if he is interested he will contact you, if he doesn't then you know its not meant to be. It might truely be that he is manic and can't give you the same amount of time than a couple of weeks, but if he really wants to make a go he will find 5 mins to call, text you. I just wish men would be on the same wavelength!
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

    At least he has bothered to text you snags, if he wasn't interested, surely he wouldn't even have text you. But then men are complicated creatures, so who knows :confused:

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    I've got a brand new still sealed in the bag size 18-20 silk and lace burgundy chemise from Ann Summers. Does anyone want it?:confused: Sorry, I know it's a bit off topic, but I ordered the wrong size and just thought that someone on here could make use out of it

    Well thats a squillion times better than my first thoughts, maybe he is just getting complacent, and you need to be the distant one, so he makes more of an effort with you. Dont get taken for granted!

    Because, after all, if he's not phoning you enough now, that will improve greatly when you dump him and he'll be phoning you lots.

    Or is it the other way round? :confused:
